Jose Constanza, I mean what more can u say about this kid. RBI Triple and then he scored. What a story he's become.

1 more shot for Uggla to continue his streak, but Freeman already continues his. Terrific pitching by Hudson!

The Streak lives

Great piece of hitting. Have to respect the Mets for pitching to Uggla in that situation. With 1st open and men on 2nd and 3rd, they really should have walked him. Would have been completely legit to have done so. But glad they went at him in a professional manner and challenged him - and lost.

He really is a great story to this 2nd half of the season. Hopefully he keeps it going because we can really use him as an asset in this WC race.

I was able to watch some of the game at work today.

Jose Constanza is becoming more known and people are getting excited.

Great win for Timmy and the team.

Tommy Hanson vs. Jon Niese

Tommy has a 6.00 era during his last 3 starts.

Tommy needs to give us a strong showing today. Forboth the team and for his confidence going down the stretch of the playoff race.

Post #15 » by **ATL Boy** » Sat Aug 6, 2011 7:50 pm

We now have some breathing room in the wildcard race, today I'm actually rooting for the Phillies as much as I hate them, with the Giants facing the Phills and the D-Backs facing the Dodgers we have to get the job done and bury the Mets' playoff hopes once and for all.

The Muts with the early lead. 2-0

ohara · Post #17 » by **ohara** » Sun Aug 7, 2011 1:11 am

Both streaks live on! Now, if Tommy can keep the pitching straight, we are looking good.

Post #18 » by **ATL Boy** » Sun Aug 7, 2011 1:16 am

Everything is going for Constanza wow, did u see that bunt

Post #19 » by **ATL Boy** » Sun Aug 7, 2011 1:22 am

Tommy again is terrable 4 ER in less then 3 innings, Tommy needs to change his approach.

ohara · Post #20 » by **ohara** » Sun Aug 7, 2011 1:25 am

Our pitching is suppose to be a strong point. But I think we have proven to be rather poor in that area since the AS Break. Hudson has been the best we have since then, and the others have all be rather disappointing. Our hitting has helped them out many times. Bats go cold now and then, but have been pretty good for us overall since the AS Break.
